Message from the Executive Director

Dear Community member:

We hope you enjoy using this website as a tool to learn more about La Oportunidad’s programs, activities, accomplishments, and how you can get involved. We thank those who support the important work we do to champion the development of Latino individuals and families to create a strong, peaceful community.

In response to the challenges the economy is presenting to nonprofits, La Oportunidad is seeking to establish new or strengthen partnerships with individuals, institutions, the philanthropic community, and businesses. Our community partners support our work through grants, donations, sponsorship, in-kind donations, employee and matching donations, volunteerism, and valuable insights and ideas. Whatever support you may provide will make a difference in the lives of the hundreds of Latino children, youth, and families that we serve each year.

The outcomes of our work continue to fill us with joy, pride, and motivation so that we can continue to strive for our vision of a community in which Latinos –whether long-term residents or new arrivals – thrive and contribute to the strength of the grater community!

If you would like to join in our efforts, please do not hesitate to contact me at 612-872-6165 or eloisae@oportunidad.org. Thank you! Eloisa.
